No statutory cap

Deposit return (no deductions)

15 days after move-out

• If you are returning the full deposit with no deductions, it must be returned within 15 days. Fla. Stat. § 83.49(3)(a).

Deposit return (with deductions)

Notice within 30 days

• You must send written notice of your intent to impose a claim within 30 days. The tenant then has 15 days to object. Fla. Stat. § 83.49(3)(b).

Non-payment notice

3-day notice (business days)

• Fla. Stat. § 83.56(3). Three business days to pay or vacate. Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays are excluded from the count.

Month-to-month termination

15 days before end of period

• Fla. Stat. § 83.57(3). Either party must give at least 15 days notice before the end of the monthly period.
